My thoughts:
Over the years we've gone to a divulge of Scandinavian vacation events; Swedish, Finnish, Danish in addition to thence this year, Icelandic! It is a lot of fun to endeavor nutrient that nosotros usually can't larn (Icelandic hot dogs in addition to lamb!) in addition to I usually come upwardly away amongst around ideas of how to brand around vacation foods at home. I've made quite a few Swedish dishes over the years only Icelandic was novel to me. In Iceland, it seems, a lot of cherry-red cabbage is grown for Jóla (Christmas) dinner. It is quick-pickled in addition to served along side hangikjöt (smoked lamb) wild game, potatoes in addition to other dishes. While around Icelandic ingredients are tricky to larn a concord of (I induce got the Icelandic hot dogs only no condiments!) cherry-red cabbage is plentiful this fourth dimension of twelvemonth hither equally well. It seemed an obvious choice! This cabbage is like to a lot of sweetness in addition to sour cabbage dishes across Europe only somewhat unusually spiced amongst star anise in addition to cinnamon. The result: a pickled cabbage dish that actually tastes of the holidays! I served it amongst pork equally I don't induce got hangikjöt only it would endure non bad amongst ham, turkey or chicken equally well.
